Super absorbent tampons are larger and more absorbent than regular tampons, making them useful for women with heavy periods or large vaginas. They can also be used by women with reduced vaginal elasticity or muscle weakness. However, they should only be used on the advice of a doctor, as heavy periods can be a symptom of serious health problems.
A super absorbent is a tampon that is larger in size than normal. These tampons feature significantly higher absorbency than regular tampons, making them useful for women experiencing heavy periods. Additionally, the size of a super tampon allows it to be used comfortably by women with large vaginas, who may find it difficult to keep a normal-sized tampon in place. Super tampons can also be used by women who suffer from reduced elasticity of the vaginal walls, as the size of the tampon allows for a better grip. Some manufacturers offer tampon sizes even larger than super for women with extremely heavy flows, such as “super plus.”
Menorrhagia, or heavy menstrual flow, is often caused by hormonal imbalances. Rather than correcting the imbalance, many women choose to use a super tampon to compensate for the unevenness. The larger size and absorbency of a super absorbent make it better equipped to deal with flow than other types of tampons. In cases where the heavy flow is due to serious medical problems, such as uterine cancers or STDs, super tampons are often prescribed to address the excessive blood flow during the preparation period before treatment. Patients undergoing treatment for these disorders can also use super tampons for the duration of the treatment period, until menstrual flows stabilize at lower levels.
Using a super tampon is also helpful for women who find that full-sized tampons are too small to fit into their vaginas. Smaller sizes can accidentally slip out of larger vaginas through enough shaking, which could lead to some very embarrassing situations. This same benefit applies to women whose vaginas lack the muscle development needed to secure a tampon in place. While Kegel exercises can help women develop the strength and tension needed to hold onto tampons tightly, the results aren’t immediate and can’t completely resolve the most drastic cases of muscle weakness. Conditions that cause vaginal tissue to deteriorate, such as vulvovaginal atrophy, cannot be treated with exercise alone.
Using a super tampon should always be done on the advice of a doctor. Many women resort to using these types of tampons without first being diagnosed as to the cause of their abnormally heavy periods. As a result, serious health problems are likely to be overlooked. In cases where you experience heavy periods on a consistent schedule, blood loss can lead to the development of anemia, which increases your risk of heart problems.
